 hexa | graham pushed aggressively for deletion of data multiple times | 22:53:24 |
| hexa | and since he created the rooms they probably also removed state events he created | 22:54:03 |
| hexa | and it's not like we can simply upgrade all 100+ rooms | 22:54:49 |
 Sumner Evans | We could upgrade the room to a new version and start over | 22:54:50 |
| hexa | what is the impact of doing that for the space though? 😄 | 22:55:05 |
| Sumner Evans | It should just work | 22:55:14 |

| Sumner Evans | it worked for me. I did have to convince my client to join the new space-room though | 22:57:48 |
 emily | (I got a push notification telling me the space has been replaced. I don't know if this means it worked or not) | 22:58:09 |
| emily | (I also got one saying you set up a Jitsi widget when you did the first twiddle. I was quite confused) | 22:58:30 |
| Sumner Evans | unfortunately, the UX is horrible, and it's really hard to actually see the underlying room for the space and join the upgraded room | 22:59:00 |
| emily | remember when Matrix seemed like an improvement on IRC? | 22:59:18 |
| emily | if anyone knows if I need to do something to Element to get me in the "new" space let me know | 22:59:54 |

if anyone knows if I need to do something to Element to get me in the "new" space let me know right click on the space -> see room timeline -> click on the link is what I did | 23:00:23 |
| emily | hm, I don't see that option. right click on it where? | 23:00:55 |
| Sumner Evans | in the left panel I thnik? | 23:01:14 |

| Sumner Evans | it might be some other setting that I enabled that gives me that option | 23:01:25 |
| Sumner Evans | I think that we might have to resort to mass-inviting everyone to the new space who was in the old space 🤮 | 23:01:46 |
| Sumner Evans | I think that will put a notification in their clients and then joining it should replace the old space I think | 23:02:24 |
| emily | yeah I do not have that and can't find where to turn it on | 23:02:25 |
| Sumner Evans | type /devtools in here and enable developer mode maybe? | 23:02:54 |

It should just work for the record, Matrix itself did work, Element is just 💩 at handling the space upgrade | 23:03:17 |

(I got a push notification telling me the space has been replaced. I don't know if this means it worked or not) oh so that’s what that was. i got a couple notifications from element x just saying “Notification” haha | 23:03:50 |
| Sumner Evans | Element X probably has no clue wtf to do about it lol | 23:04:13 |
| emily | In reply to @sumner:nevarro.space
type /devtools in here and enable developer mode maybe? okay that let me see the secret timeline and click the new space link and now it's spinning "Joining…" | 23:04:22 |
| emily | :upsid | 23:04:28 |
| emily | * 🙃 | 23:04:31 |
| emily | we'll see if it manages to do it | 23:04:35 |
